JOY Eurovision

19 Feb 2012

Italy decides … but perhaps not totally

National Finals

The traditional mode of selection for Italy has come up with a singer, but there remains some doubt about a song !

It was a bit of  a “never ending story” of a night kind of a night which ended with Nina Zilli selected to carry the  the green, white & red to Azerbaijan.

However it’s reported that the song she sang, “Per Sempre” (Forever) may not make the trip with her.

Public broadcaster RAI says  it has only picked Nina and the Italian song in the 2012 ESC might be a different to that which see sang at Festival di Sanremo !
